Published in a Children’s Book
We mentioned a few weeks ago that James had been asked to photograph pages for a local author who was writing a children’s book. Well, here is a little teaser for those who are interested. We are hoping to have the book published and ready for purchase at the Leapin Lizards Halloween Bash on October 31st. If you don’t already know about the Halloween Bash, click on studio news above and read all the fun details. Make sure you join us and compete in our Halloween Costume Contest. It’s so much fun and drags out the competitive side in parents. Ok, here is my favorite page in the book.

A Day In The Park With Our Boys!
We are always photographing someone else’s kids, so today we decided to photograph our own kids.
One of my mentors, Sandy Puc says that photographing your own kids is the hardest thing you will have to do.
Tristen is an exception to the rule. He is always smiling and posing for the camera. I think he got that from me!

Asher on the other hand…. not so easy! His name actually means happy, but he doesn’t quite fit that category all the time.

I love this pic of me and the boys! They had enough pictures, but what little boy doesn’t love to kiss his Mommy!

Colt is 6 months!
We had the pleasure of photographing these two adorable young men in one of favorite gardens. This is Colt’s 6 month session. I can’t believe how quickly time passes with these little ones. Big brother Slade was so patient with his little brother!

Congratulations Jones Family
The Jones Family finally got their delivery… a healthy baby boy! Jacob is going to have so much playing with this new toy! Benjamin is such a sweet baby and we can’t wait to see what he will look like in 3 months.
Good luck mom and dad… we know what it’s like to have two boys!

Photographing pages for a Children’s Book

A couple of months ago, James and I were approached by the owner of Leapin’ Lizards, Dione Cubas. She wrote a song for her children when they were babies and wanted to turn it into a children’s book. She wanted us to photograph the pages of the book, rather than having illustrated pages.
Here we are several months later. We have had a blast photographing all the scenes with over 21 kids from around Atlanta. Thank you to all who have participated! We are honored to be a part and hope you have enjoyed the process!
We are just about finished and will be publishing soon!!

Love! that photo with the children and moon and stars, Spectacular!!!……and the baby picture.
